Disc 1: THE GANGS ALL HERE Disc 2: ON THE AVENUE Disc 3: LILLIAN RUSSELL Disc 4: THAT NIGHT IN RIOAmazon.com
The brevity of her stardom might account for her relative lack of 21st-century fame, but believe it: Alice Faye was a huge star. She was the queen of Twentieth Century Fox for a few years and became the heroine of the wartime musical until she was displaced by her Fox stablemate Betty Grable. As a singer, she enjoyed a string of hits with her surprising voice, a low, mellow croon, which somehow sounds like the World War II homefront. Faye’s fleshy, cornfed face had much to do with her girl-next-door persona, although the figure she shows off in a gold dress in That Night in Rio leaves no doubt about … More >>

Shot in London during the 2000 world tour, Brutally Live showcases Alice Cooper doing what he’s been doing better than anyone else over the past 25 years: turning a rock concert into a campy theatrical extravaganza. That he’s old enough to be almost anyone in the audience’s (grand?)father is quite beside the point. For Alice remains one of the few who knows that rock & roll should be fun, even if that means severed heads, gushing blood, and murdered babies. Even the fabled guillotine, from his heyday a quarter-century ago, makes an appearance. Alice also takes a shot at Marilyn Manson, Ozzy Osbourne, and Kiss by calling them “my undisciplined children.” Alice and his band rip through 105 minutes of some of his best-k… More >>
